Amethi, Feb 19, 2024: Union Minister Smriti Irani has challenged Rahul Gandhi, whose Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra entered Uttar Pradesh today, to contest from his erstwhile constituency of Amethi.
"In 2019 he left Amethi, today Amethi has left him. If he is confident, then without going to Wayanad (Mr Gandhi’s Constituency), let him fight from Amethi," said Ms Irani, who defeated Rahul Gandhi in his stronghold Amethi with a margin of around 55,000 votes in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.
